A lattice or solid structure for a medical device includes a first layer of first filaments discretely formed from at least one medical-grade silicone material. The first filaments are arranged in a predetermined pattern and may be directly adjacent to one another or spaced apart. Additional layers of filaments may be provided adjacent to the first layer, and chemically bonded thereto to form an integrated structure that is without interruption or with interstices therebetween.

An adjustable seal system, seal component for use in the system, and method are provided for forming a sealing interface between a residual limb and a prosthetic socket. The seal component is selectively placed over the outer surface of a suspension liner including a plurality of seal bands, which the seal component may removably and securely engage.

A prosthetic liner includes a flexible elongate, generally conical body portion formed from an elastomeric material. The body portion defines an inner surface, an outer surface forming a liner profile between a distal end and a proximal end, and an axis extending between the distal and proximal ends. At least one seal element extends circumferentially about the axis and protrudes radially outward a distance from the liner profile. The at least one seal element has a seal height defined between the liner profile and a radially outward end of the at least one seal element. The seal height varies circumferentially about the axis between a first seal height and a second seal height.

Aspects herein are directed to a tubular knit sleeve for a below-the-knee amputee where the tubular knit sleeve includes zoned grip features, zoned cushioning features, zoned traction features, and zoned breathability/permeability features that facilitate the wearer participating in athletic activities, such as wrestling, without a prosthetic leg.

An apparatus for protecting a post-amputation residuum comprises a shell defining a hollow interior cavity adapted for receiving and covering a distal portion of the residuum. The shell has an opening into the cavity at the distal end. A proximal portion of a compression sleeve is adapted to be disposed over at least a portion of the residuum. A free distal portion of the sleeve is configured to extend through the opening in the shell. The sleeve everts upon application of a longitudinal force to the distal portion of the sleeve in a proximal direction for folding over and covering the shell. The distal portion of the sleeve extends proximally of the shell to a position at least partially along the proximal portion of the sleeve for compressing the shell inwardly toward the residuum.

A liner system for applying to a limb or a limb stump, with an inner liner comprising an inner side facing the limb or limb stump and an outer side facing away from the limb or limb stump, and an outer liner that comprises an inner side facing the inner liner and an outer side facing away from the inner liner. The outer liner is designed to be applied over the inner liner, with a sealing element which is designed to be separate from the inner liner and the outer liner, for arranging between the outer side of the inner liner and the inner side of the outer liner.
